The number of complaints against the Royal Ulster Constabulary increased by 25% last year, according to the 1991 report of the Independent Commission for Police Complaints. Only nine cases out of 2,500 resulted in criminal charges and none of these was upheld. The Commission was unable to substantiate a single case out of 840 complaints of ill-treatment by suspects held under emergency legislation.

Our work is only possible with your support.
